Picnic Fun!

 Last week we went on a picnic with some friends :)  This time of year the weather is nice and picnics are great :)  The kiddos had a GREAT time!
 We played with some balls we bought there for hours!  It was fun:)
 We even stuck our feet into the stinky water :)  It felt really good, but boy did my feet stink afterwards! haha!
 There are peddlers going around selling everything from Chai to snacks to toys :)  We got some Cotton Candy :)  It was fun :)
 They were selling these cute horse toys :) 
 The guys (minus one).
 I thought this picture looked cool :)
It was a FULL moon when we left!!

Funny Things - Random :)

Here's a few random funny things ;) One thing that drives a lot of people crazy is honking! There are things that drive me crazy (like people urinating on the sidewalks - yuck!) but thankfully honking is not one of them because we hear it pretty much 24/7. We saw this poster the other day (below) and thought it was funny... BUT not as funny as the Hindi poster. The Hindi poster pretty much said that 'Honking is bad for your health' - haha ! Horns are actually a pretty necessary part of driving here. You don't really look behind you when you drive (most people either don't use their side mirrors, don't have side mirrors, or just have them folded in). When you drive, you just drive forward and you honk at the person in front of you to let them know that you're there - simple right? Sure, it's a little noisy, but you never have to look behind you :) If you go to that company's website it says: "Have patience at the traffic signals, let the signal t...
